Hey Michael.

Thanks for checking this one out, and I'm glad that you liked it.

It's been a while since I heard what's been going on with it and just got an e-mail a couple days ago that it was submitted to the San Diego Film Festival, and we should find out in December if it's accepted or not.

Thanks for checking it out again.

- Mark

Hey other Mark and Gabe,

Thank you.  I was excited when I got the e-mail from the director, Jason Garrett, over the weekend.  I've been trying to look up a little more about the festival but haven't had too much time to get online.

Nevertheless, it still made me smile and breathe deeply.

Congrats on the win, Mark!

That's a resume builder!
You must be proud.

I got burned on my short script deal.
But I'm thrilled to see yours come to fruition.
And garner the praise and awards it deserves.

Keep being you!

Regards,
Brett

Hey Mark,

Congrats on the award.

Also, I've just watched the short and thought it was great - very powerful.

Well done, buddy.

Thanks Bill, Brett and Steve!


Quoted from E.D.
I got burned on my short script deal.


Are you talking about 'Lie Detector'?  That sucks.  I'm sorry to hear it.  Wasn't there some talk of turning it into a feature at some point, too?  Hope that's not nixed.


Quoted from Coop
I've just watched the short and thought it was great - very powerful.


Thanks again, Steve.  This was one of my favorite and most personal scripts of mine there for awhile.  (Now I have others).


And thanks, Don, for posting about it.  And Michael, for embedding it on the thread!

Also thanks to everybody who had read it before and commented on the script before I redrafted it and sold it.  I know the thread's no longer here, but I remember Brett, Rob (sniper), Michael (screenrider) had all commented on it and thanks to Jeff (dreamscale) and Libby for also taking a look at it at one point or another.

Also thank you to-

Holy crap!  Really?  Don's playing orchestra music to let me know I've overstayed my welcome.

Thank you Simply Scripts!

Glad to see this on the homepage and congrats for the win. You write very harsh and real stuff Youngstown. I love this film. Sorry I didn't hammer the script before it was optioned. Your stuff rarely slips by my radar.

You sold it? Damn, I still haven't made a cent. I'm firing my mom as my agent.

Mark,

Congratulations!  I apologize for talking so long getting vid up on the main site and SS FB page.  I'm more than happy to promote any film that had the script workshopped on SimpyScripts.

Wow! Just watched this. Another one made of a very high calibre. Can see why this just got an award.

The story packs a punch and pulls at the heartstrings all at the same time. Excellent casting with the young girl too.

Congrats to you, Mark.

Thanks everybody for the warm congratulations.


Quoted from James McClung
You sold it? Damn, I still haven't made a cent.


Oh yeah, baby.  Mid-to-low two digits.  That's actually why I had to ask Don to take it down, because I didn't have the rights anymore.  (I see why now, after what happened to Dan and a couple other people.  If anybody else had made it during the interim, it would've been disqualified from any festivals.)


Once again, Don, thank you very much for the Simply Scripts site.  I've said it before, I hope you realize how many careers you're kickstarting here.


And thanks, Shawn.  How's your feature coming along?  I remember you saying it was close not too long ago.
